I simply love mangoes-in all their glorious avtars, the luscious ripe flesh is sweet and delicious and the raw flesh is tangy, sour and equally mouth-watering.I thought of making this chutney to go with some simple dal-chawal, and it really spiced up the meal, we all loved it and the whole bowl was licked clean in seconds!

INGREDIENTS-

Medium raw mago-1

Green chillies-2

Raw chana dal- 2 tbsp

Garlic-3 plump cloves

Curry leaves-5

Salt to taste

Oil-1/2 tsp

METHOD-Heat oil and fry the chana dal till a deep lovely golden brown, add the garlic and turn off the stove, what I wanted to achieve here was that the rawness of the garlic should disappear and at the same time I never wanted a fried garlic taste, let cool like in the pic below:

Peel and cut mango into slices, add the rest of the ingredients and grind to a fine paste in a mixie, add the salt in the end, serve as a dip or accompaniment.
